Run up the pyramid then cut it down – Mountain Goat Pre-Blast

Run up the pyramid then cut it down – Mountain Goat Pre-Blast

So short and sweet since YHC has competing priorities.

Basic warm up.

Running intervals at I pace which also uncomfortably hard which is also about 30 seconds slower than our mile time which is just find some like speed guys and run with them if needed, etc.

200M – 200M jog/regroup recovery

400M – 400M jog/regroup recovery

600M – 600M jog/regroup recovery

800M – 800M jog/regroup recovery

Then we’ll attempt to run a proper cut down run, taking 5 seconds a lap (which equals 20 seconds per mile) off the pace.  We will start slow.  This is a moderate running workout so we will start slow.  The idea is that we will stay together if at all possible.  If we need to break it up to sections we will.

The longer recoveries and the cut down run are intended to help with pacing consistency and exposure to a new technique in running improvement.  Full disclosure, YHC has actually effectively executed a cut down run twice, I am neither a professional nor particularly experienced but I have learned from my other (failed) attempts that starting too fast is very easy so we will start slow.
